Yeah, the lack of holding to account is just..weird.

Meanwhile, I saw many many posts about 'it would be worse with corbyn!!!'...while..absolving boris of any blame at the same time. I mean, its ridiculous to blame him FOR the pandemic, I agree on that, but the bungled response to it? 100% him (and his party)

Someone else might have done just as badly. And if they did, they would also be held to account.

It not even really a 'with the benefit of hindsight thing' either...given the same mistakes have been repeated OVER AND OVER. One **** up, yeah fine..unprecedented situation, etc.. Every decision (seemingly) being a **** up? Not so much.
